QUick Cook-Book to building a transmitter:

1. Get an ARRL (Amateur Radio Relay League) study guide.  Also
 look at magazines such as Popular Electronics, as well as
 the various ham mags.  Check out as many books as you can
 get ahold of from the library on radio theory and amateur
 radio operation.  You will find tons of schematics for building
 transmitters that work in the amateur bands.  You will find
 many step by step assembly instructions.
 
2. Consult the radio theory books on how to tune the transmitter
 oscilator to the desired frequency for the carrier wave.  Depending
 on the type of transmitter, this is done differently.  Simple
 transmitters use an LRC circuit but there are plently of other ways
 to do it.  The article on constructing the transmitter will largely
 address this issue.
 
3. You can go on the air but if you are in violation of any law be
 prepared to suffer the consequences.  PLEASE be careful to avoid
 radio control and navigation bands (consult the FCC Regulations
 for more information).  I actually recommend becoming a licensed
 amateur radio operator and doing this legally (although amateur
 radio operation isn't quite the same a broadcasting -- e.g., you
 are prohibited from transmitting music). --
